Mobile devices have become an indispensable part of daily life for a vast per cent of the world's population, whether it be a daily scheduler or news provider.
According to Viet Nam E-commerce Association's (Vecom) 2014 e-commerce report, there are 134 million mobile subscriptions in the country and more than 11.6 million smart phones were sold in the year.
With 39 per cent of the population on the Internet, 34 per cent of which access it through mobile devices, Viet Nam shows promise as an emerging mobile e-commerce market.
Nguyen Thanh Hung, deputy chairman and general secretary of Vecom, said mobile devices are invading the sector.
Consumer demand for services and mobile applications that help them perform daily transactions in a more convenient manner around-the-clock is increasing.
Enterprises investing in mobile website solutions should meet these time and ease requirements to make them more competitive, Hung said.
Having a strong mobile website will help Vietnamese enterprises increase long-term profits and develop an international presence, he advised the attendees.
